Dufour 470, Family cruiser with space to spare.

- Опубліковано 18 лис 2023
- This Dufour 470 is probably the largest Family cruiser with space to spare. This Sailboat has three personalities. Cruser, family regata boat or something you might consider taking around the world if you are following the trade winds. Who knows what you might do with this versatile yacht.
I know many of these Dufour 470's have ended up in the charter market.
As always, a great performance, thanks!
Thank you, 😁 Quick question, would you like us to do Tech videos (interviews)? on this channel as well.
@@YachtingInsider If I could wish for something:
1. All shots should taken so that the images are not distorted in length so that you can see the original size, i.e. the real ship.
2. Topic of air conditioning of the boats, which concept. Is the ventilation successful?
3. More large boats from 60 feet
4. Topic: safety of the boat construction: e.g. waterproof bulkheads, pump performance, protected rudder blades.
5. Sailing performance from a design perspective
6. Special features of the boats
7. Furniture quality
8. Size of the lockers
9. ...
@@Andy-99. Thank you for taking the time to give us your thoughts on Yachting Insider, we will work to implement some of these ideas over the next few months and especially when we attend the BOOT Dusseldorf boat show. Thank you for your time and we have a Southern Wind 96ft boat coming soon.
@@SVTONICBoatWives Thank you for your reply
Bad galley at sea , and along way to go in wet gear for a cuppa on night watch , love the deck aft bin .short sofa lounge chair
One thing I find somewhat ilogic in many boats are the storage bin doors that open downward. How can you reach the end of the storage if the doors on your front??
Apart this, a venry interesting boat - I believe focused on the charter market. I'd put all storage doors "upside down" :) See you on the next video!
Totally agree if they are high up and deep. But when on passage it helps to stop stuff flying all over the place. Just a quick question as you know we have our other channel; What sort of video would you like to see on this one? Would you like videos (interviews about boat tech and or videos on how to type ie morring your boat or engine service, etc?)
@@SVTONICBoatWives I find the name of this channel fits perfectly on the videos you already do - and I love: an overview of a boat and how'd be to live on it, both from a comfort and maintenance point of view.
The other channel could me more focused on the practical side of a boat so the future owner lnows what he's getting into, a comfortable boat not focused on DIY maintenance or a boat with a better DIY maintenance compromise. I'd HATE the designer of boat if, to rech the quadrant of the rudder after an Orca misaligned it, I had to become a dwarf to be able to fix it... On the other hand, if to do so all I had to do was open a hatch and have everything easily and clearly accessible, I'd send the designer a love letter :)
Another disgusting point: engine maintenance! To service the engine do I have to dismantle two cabins? NOT GOOD!! Boat designers have to consider this, even on charter boats: the easier the maintenance, the more money a boat will make to its owner. And the same works for owner's boats: the easier the maintenance, the more money I save when fixing times come - and thy will! It'd be the channel for interviews about boat tech and videos on mooring your boat, engine service, etc.
This way, I believe, as a viewer I'd have two views on the same boat: one more "emotional" and another from a more practical point of view.
This'd be GREAT!
Hope to have added! My best, see you on the next video. Fir winds!
@@joseerazevedo Thanks for your input, you have given us a lot to think about. The original channel will change a little sometime in the future as we look to purchasing a boat but we will still do the boat tours. You are right with this channel as regards to diving in much deeper on engine access boat tec and so with the videos being relevant to the ones we already tour.
@@SVTONICBoatWives happy to have added something to your channels! I really like your view of things and always wish you the best!
THATS what I'm talking about 🥰👍
glad you like it. 😁
